I saw a chick at a doughnut shop a few mornings ago with whatever u call them things. I can't believe they aren't more popular than they are. As much as people smoke you'd think they'd be mainstream

Yep

I got a Bluepoint solder gun that looks like that

Being the season is at its end I am offering incredible discounts on the Ethos drivers. This discount will last until January 15th 2014 and will also be available for the Lay A Way plan. There are a few stipulations for the pricing: FIRST AND FOREMOST YOU MUST BE A MEMBER ON SSA. Don't worry you don't have to be a SSA veteran. SSA noobies are allowed. Just think of it as another perk. You get to join the number one site on the web for knowledgeable car audio and you as a seasoned competitor can bring your knowledge to help make SSA even better. 1) You must like us on face book to see pricing. 2) You must have competed during 2012 and/or 2013. 3)You must be able to show proof of competing. For example be listed on termpro.com 4)To purchase at competitor pricing email at [email protected] or PM me here with following information -name used on forum sites -real name -product currently using -rank during competition season -if possible link to proof of competing - list number, size and ohm load of subwoofers you are wanting to purchase 5) after I have confirmed that you are indeed a competitor I will send a PayPal invoice to your paypal address for the full amount or if you desire set you up for the lay a way plan FaceBook is "Direct Speaker Supplies" https://www.facebook.com/pages/Direct-Speaker-Supplies/235478963277472 FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DONT HAVE FACEBOOK, PRICING IS: $245 SHIPPED FOR THE 12 $255 SHIPPED FOR THE 15

Just need to add a heating system in your driveway.

Don't worry Mark never answers any if his either.

Deboning saw

That is exactly the point. The dual action blades cancel most if the vibration by cutting in both directions just like a denomination saw.

You've never used a saw zaw before have you.

ohhh, so I really shouldn't look at those graphs a reference or a good representation of what to expect installed in my vehicle? For example, I look at this driver: http://www.usspeaker.com/ciare%201200sw-1.htm Now, by manufacture, it recommends 20hz-200hz. But looking at the graph, it "seems" to play relatively well up into about 1khz. So, just because it looks good on the graph, doesn't mean it plays good? Is that what you're saying? No, that response is only when the driver is facing directly in front of you. And this is with any driver. This normally isn't a problem with home audio as the drivers are more or less in front of you.

you can't look at those response graph and expect them to look like that once installed. Those responses are on axis with one watt of power. Once off axis and induction with proper power response will fall off greatly. Those responses are only a guideline when on axis one meter away. Vance did a review with Voice Coil a while back on the Ultimax but I can't find the mag.

A 12 inch driver will not play high enough to blend with tweeters.

A ten can be made but the Ethos motor has WAY too much motor force for the weight of a 10 inch cone. As it is I am adding 35 grams to the moving mass to the 12 to get a proper response. If built the 10 wouldn't sound as good. I could however add about 125 grams of mass to make the response acceptable.

I'm always getting phone calls, PMs, and emails on "what to use for this" or "where did you get that contraption that you used on that". Well today I purchased the domain name "directspeakersupplies.com" Eventually it'll be a one stop shop for anything dealing with fabricating and installing audio. The first bit of stuff that I will be put on the site will be speaker parts, cones, spiders, terminals, coils, glue, dust caps, baskets, bolts, surrounds, ect. As time and capital allows (have to buy in large bulk to forward savings to customer) I will be adding more and more product. Things like carpet, fiberglass, resin, wire lugs, actuators, plexi, wiring, solder, router bits, sand paper, grill metal expandable sleeving, suede, vinyl, ect, ect, ect, ect. Pricing is still to be determined on most everything. However by browsing the net at the available reconing supplies and parts, mine will be a good 25 percent cheaper.

And there is a chance for sleet/snow, icy road conditions here.

My first appointment stood me up so have been catching up on drawings. This day needs to hurry the fuck up and get over already.I get to leave in about 2 hrs on my way to work out of town all week.

The below graph is the Ethos 15 Kms curve. This is an expected curve when combined with my cones (surround plays a part in Kms). The spider pack for this curve is 3 stiff and one soft spiders. The below is another 8 inch progressive spider that is available. By viewing the graph it can bee seen the suspension only changes ~10 percent from rest to linear xmax. Versus the 50 percent increase in stiffness with my parts. This with ~1.7mm of creep are two reasons why DSS customers are reporting an increased tightness and transient response compared to other set ups they have ran.

received a few parts. I don't have much time to upload but I thought I'd post this. An 8 inch spider with dual sewn tinsels. Each tinsel is rated at 100 amps max. If you are running dual one ohm coils this spider will allow for 40,000 watts max per each coil. This is the same stiff spider used on the Ethos. It is a true progressive spider that is measured 365 grams at 1mm.

I suggest ^ and buy the 7th edition version of the cookbook. It will explain in detail of how to go about building to a desired response and Q. And how to measure, tune, and adjust if need be. I personally wouldn't build a BP enclosure for a sub stage intended on playing the full sub stage. The transient response on a BP enclosure with a large passband will have a much degraded transient response compared to a ported box. Again this is explained in the cookbook.

With the lay a way it only costs you $2.95 a day.

Maybe in LA, not in La

we are expecting ~200 people to show up for our gender reveal party.
